About This Book
The Design of Renovations is like any other building design, but more complicated, because the questions that architects and engineers face in the process are complicated by the form, materials, peculiarities of age, and construction of the existing building.
The Design of Renovations outlines the basic pertinent principles of design and construction and explains how to apply them to renovataion, making the physical structure of a building meet the aesthetic needs of the job, given the constraints of the materials involved. Actual case studies illustrate the practical application of theory, methods, and procedures to the various materials and assemblies described, emphasizing the effect of architectural and planning decisions on building structure.
